Answer:

Magnitude = 4.056 m

Direction = 42.3⁰

Explanation:

The vector is resolved in terms of the vertical and horizontal components. Let's look each of these separately.

The vector 4.40 is directed East. This automatically becomes a horizontal component.

But we know that there is a vector 3.40 North West. The angle the vector makes with the horizontal is 61⁰.

Resolving the vectors should yield the horizontal and vertical components:

Horizontal components

The first component is 4.40 m

The second one is derived by resolving 3.40 to the horizontal like this 3.40 × - cos 61⁰ = -1.648 m

Adding the horizontal component gives 4.40 m + ( -1.648 m) = 2.752 m

Vertical components

Resolve 3.40 with the angle 61⁰ like this: vertical comp = 3.41 × sin 61

                                                                                           = 2.98 m

The magnitude is given by √[(2.98)²+ (2.752)²] = 4.056 m Ans

The direction us given by tan⁻¹ (2.98/2.752) = 42.3⁰ Ans

A ball is rolled of a 2.14m table at 8m/s. Find the time of flight for the ball and the horizontal range
Mama L [17]

Answer:

0.661 s, 5.29 m

Explanation:

In the y direction:

Δy = 2.14 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(2.14 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.661 s

In the x direction:

v₀ = 8 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.661 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (8 m/s) (0.661 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.661 s)²

Δx = 5.29 m

Round as needed.

Sati [7]

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Potential energy or chemical potential energy is used to Cook food which is then converted into thermal energy. The type of energy used also depends upon the type of cooking appliances used.

For e.g. stove convert potential energy to thermal energy.

Which law is used to find the magnitude of a magnetic force?
Talja [164]

Answer:

The Flemings left hand rule is used to find the magnitude of a magnetic force

Explanation:

Fleming's left hand rule states that if the first three fingers are held mutually at right angles to one another, then the fore finger points into the direction of magnetic field the middle finger in the direction of current while the thumb points in the direction of force.

Mathematically

Magnetic Force F= BILsinθ

Where

B= magnetic field density Tesla

I= current

L= length of conductor

θ= angle of conductor with field

Coiling wire around an iron core and applying an electric current through the wire creates a temporary magnet called an electrom
Serggg [28]

Answer:

C) Use a battery with more voltage.

Explanation:

The equation for the magnetic field around a coil is given by,

B = μ₀NI

where,

B = Magnetic flux density

μ₀ = permeability

N = number of turns per meter

I = Current in the wire

So when using a higher voltage battery, more current passes through the battery as resistance of the wire remains the same.
